My eyes are starting to show some age and I may have to scope my stainless Bisley. Suggestions on a rock solid mount that wont hurt the looks of my beautiful sidearm?

The only "rock solid" option I have found requires a couple holes in the topstrap.


Rod, too.

Short cuts often lead to long recoveries.

i dont know of any scope mount for a blackhawk that wont hurt the looks. pretty is as pretty does though and if it makes the gun more usable, then i would call it pretty.

This mount system from midway has worked well for me. I have two on top a 44mag and a 45 colt and so far no issues. They sport 4X Luepolds and have seen maybe 250-500 rounds through each since being installed and I have no issues. The piece that impacts the barrel I covered the arms with felt as to not damage the bluing. I went this way as to not have to drill anything.

Same setup has worked for me for several years now.

Yes. Have one and sent one to a friend in Idaho to mount on a stainless Bisley model.
